It kind of reminds me of the early 3-D arcade racing games Hard Drivin' and Stunt Drivin'.

Yeah Nintendo doesn't do collections a lot. They should, though. There's Metroid Prime Trilogy, that Zelda collection you could get when you preordered...um, Wind Waker I think? In Japan they had a puzzle game collection on the GBA. I'd love to see an arcade collection, too, but I wouldn't be too upset if it didn't have Popeye on it.
I reviewed the first Turok game back in my Dallas Morning News days.
During that time, I was in college at The University of Texas at Austin, and since I got a job working at the newspaper, I decided to major in Journalism. Yeah, seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, one of my assignments was to interview someone and write a story, so since I lived in Austin at the time, I chose to interview someone at Iguana Entertainment. The cool thing is that one of the things they said to me was they were working on something really big and they couldn't talk about it. Makes me wonder if that big thing was Metroid Prime? It was about the right time for them to start working on it anyway.
I first played Jet Force Gemini at E3 and I didn't like the controls, so I skipped out on it when it came out. Too bad it didn't play more like Ratchet and Clank. It's funny how certain things age better than others on the N64. For instance, I replayed Donkey Kong 64 a couple of years ago and thought it had aged poorly, and yet when I replayed Banjo-Kazooie and its sequel, I thought they were still fun and aged very well.
I probably would go crazy with the Arcade Archives, too, but they do add up moneywise, and you only get one game, so I haven't done that yet. But if they ever released a collection, hoo boy!
I believe the 7800 is backwards compatible with the 2600, but not the 5200. Otherwise I would've gotten a 7800 as a kid, I think.
I remember Calfiornia Games being huge back when I was a kid. I saw it everywhere for a while. Don't think I ever played it, though. I did play some games LIKE it back in the day, though, like Skate or Die and T&C Surf Designs. But only for a little bit. LIke, I'd go over to a friend's house and they had rented it or something.
The reason why ESWAT feels like an arcade game is because it WAS originally an arcade game! :)
Yeah the Switch version is a good one to get since it has all of vols. 1 to 3. I just got it on the PS4 since I had the others on it as well.
I had the NES version of Millepede. It was one of the few NES games I could get my dad to play. Did you know that Satoru Iwata made the NES Millepede game when he was at HAL?
Dig Dug on the 5200 was better than the 2600 version at least! I loved Pengo. That was my favorite 5200 game. I played that one so much back then!
I want a 7800, or a collection of 7800 games on a disc. One of the 7800 games is Food Fight. Love that one.
